Tiger
-
I've got Spieth or Patrick Reed. And I don't even like Patrick, he's just feeling it this year.
-
Tony Finau has been playing really well this year, and Ricky is long overdue. Sleeper: Kyle Stanley

li haotong

JT, Tiger, Rory at 823am is a pretty cool group

DJamer

I really want Rickie to win one.

1. Rickie
2. Tiger
3. Duf Daddy--- Not sure he qualified. He's been off the radar this year
I'd love to see Rickie finally win one. Also good for the Big 12.

I haven't heard from Dufner in so long I didn't even know he was still on the tour. I also forgot he won this thing back in 2013.

Yeah, had one really good win last year, but other than that, just does enough to be successful on tour.
He's getting old, though. Probably needs to realize that and stop hanging out with the young guys in the frat house.
-
Rickie :Woot:
-
Damn, Tiger has been really damn good since those first two trash holes.
-
The Shrimp
-
oh, and the K-State PGA professional dude is going to make the cut. That's pretty cool
-
go phil go!
-
Looking amaze!
-
Just a little water mistake but golden other than that
-
Good for the old guy
-
Love old guy wins!

The artist has his masterpiece.

be awesome if tiger could rehab enough to give it one more serious go

Five years younger than Phil.

And a crap ton of surgeries. I just feel like his body is about to combust soon. I hope he comes back though. It would be awesome!
-

Man glad I'm not that old. Heh.

as amazing of a comeback tiger's win at the 2019 masters was, winning another major might be more improbable. wouldn't count him out though

Do they let them use carts on the senior tour? He should just start wrecking crap on the senior tour in 5 years.
-
Anybody seen the TV ratings.
I suspect CBS and ESPN had to be thrilled.
-
Is Phil still an bad person behind the scenes?

Twitter is speculating that Brooks is pissed at the hard spikes on the concrete because no pro wears them. Others are saying that Bryson said "you just have to start it on the right line" in responding to Brooks talking about having a hard time reading the putts.
-
Had to be bc of what he said
-
great line by bryson if he said that :lol:

It's called the... "I can't wait to throw out my back soon!"
-
disappointed he wasn't doing that in spikes
-
They're both robots, but it appears Brooks is less of one.
CBS enjoyed it's highest single round of golf ratings in 3 years, and viewership doubled year over year at the peak hour on Sunday. ESPN was up 18% over 2019, they didn't count 2020.
You know golf coverage networks are :pray: :pray: that Phil can stay playing well and that Tiger can make a miraculous recovery.
-
and?
-
it was spikes

I actually think it was both. Brooks was side eyeing him even before Bryson got over there, then Bryson definitely said something because Brooks said "I don't want to listen to that bullshit."
-
Lol. Look at this dork!
https://twitter.com/dylan_dethier/status/1397028746247479297?s=20
This is the first time I saw him not in golf clothes. First of all, that haircut :ROFL: secondly, because what I thought were tits, I thought Bryson was a fatty that lifted weights, I have no idea that he was that diesel.

I’m going full conspiracy theory that this is all orchestrated by the PGA to help fill the Tiger void. It’s what I would orchestrate if I was in charge.

My gawd Phil needs to step aside and let Brooks play this. Good night nurse that’s a massive TV event just dying to happen.
-
I know these two seriously hate the crap out of each other IRL & I absolutely love it, because Brooks half asses golf tournaments and wins 5 majors without showing real interest in the sport and dork store Bryce has to go all physics with it and eat a crap ton of whey protein to keep up with the big guys, while averaging 5 hour rounds to keep in contention. It must infuriate, Bryce! #TeamBrooks :love:

Not sure there is a single player on tour I like

Do you play? Honest question. I only watch the NBA to see Lebron, so if that’s the case, I get it. This is fun to follow for those who pay attention to the sport and I’m definitely not advocating getting into it if you have no interest.
-
that video is gone and I can't figure out what these guys are fighting about. something about spikes? what a dumb game

Not nearly as much as I used to. The players just seem a lot less like able than a decade ago.

There was no fight, just two dudes who really don't like each other occupying the same space. Happens in every sport, rarely carried out publicly, nothing specific to a "dumb game."
-
Tiger is bringing the MJ factor to the sport for many casual fans. Just like MJ, I watched the NBA all through the 90’s and early 00’s. I agree, once the stars leave, it’s an adjustment to regain your excitement for the sport. I do think the PGA has a lot of fun like able guys if you give it a chance tho.

People who usually hate golf, love soccer, so they usually put that focus into another dumb sport they suck at.

I like playing golf for free at tourneys/scrambles I get invited to. Free booze, food and golf is the way to go.

I don't think so. II think this what you get when you have two millennials speaking to each other online but they play in a sport when there is no threat of physical retribution. Millennials speak to each other in a different way than people have before them, communicating through the internet with the ability to avoid face-to-face confrontation which allows people to kinda talk crazy to each other. The reason why Davis Love never called John Daly a fat drunk publicly is because the possibility existed that DL3 would have had to fight John. That element of life doesn't really exist anymore.
I think we'll see more of this type stuff.

I don't think they had them into some happy gilmore meeting with doug from the tour but the agents were made aware no one would oppose a feud

It's kind of amazing how much pro golf talent Dallas produces. I'm not sure why that is, although I suspect money plays a factor.

Pretty tough day for the PGA Tour and I couldn't be happier. Jay Monahan trying to maintain a monopoly on professional golf is devious. We wouldn't have an issue if he just would let players play on both tours.

You can only watch it on Youtube and their website too. That sucks. Here are the events listed so far. I'd actually be interested to attend one, just to see if I can pick up any difference in the events.

Same. No downside.

I haven't been following the LIV stuff. It seems like they've taken 15-20% of the highest ranked 100-200 players and none of the top 15.
Seems like they could try to entice many more players with the "high nine figures" money they said they offered to Tiger. Who knows what the ultimate objective is, though?

Brooks hasn’t even sniffed winning a golf tournament in over a year that I recall so he did the smart thing, I’m sure they offered him a number similar to dustin johnson.

I'm all for what creates the most bitter feuds so this seems good to me.

Me too. The European and Asian tours have played in Saudi Arabia for years and players who played there faced no PGA bans or media scrutiny.
